Teaching My Children!

The Lord tells us to teach our children what they need to know and for us to protect them, emotionally and physically and also to teach them the things of the spirit. When it comes to raising children I am learning that is is HARD and SCARY and I need Gods help EVERY second of every day. Sometimes we make decisions that others do not like or that people don't agree with or even that our families don't like, But each and every decision is brought before God with much prayer and we make decisions that God wants us to make even if that means others get mad.

Right now my child is seeking God and I want to live a life of example and no I am not perfect and I mess up daily! But I want my child to know that God has mercy on me and forgives me and that's what matters.

The Lord Says:

Proverbs 22:6
Train a child in the way he should go,
and when he is old he will not turn from it.

Exodus 18:2
"Teach them [children] the decrees and laws, and show them the way to live and the duties they are to perform."

Deuteronomy 4:9
Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.

Deuteronomy 6:5-7
Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commmandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Psalm 8:2
From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.

Proverbs 20:11
Even a child is known by his actions,
by whether his conduct is pure and right.

I want my children to look back one day and say "I am so thankful that my parents taught me the ways of The Lord and about the Holy Spirit and didn't care what others thought!" I look back on my life and am so thankful that my mother taught me about The Lord and also sheltered me from things of this life until I was ready to see or know about them!

Have A Blessed Day!!
